Figure 8From: A comparison of tympanic and rectal temperatures in term NIGERIAN neonates Receiver Operating Curve for the accuracy of tympanic temperature measurements versus rectal measurements at temperature cut-off of 38°C. The curve lying closest to the y axis is the most accurate and this is shown in this ROC at temperature cut-off of 38 °C and Area Under the Curve of 0.91 (95% CI: 0.89, 0.94).Back to article page
